Cider Press

Pressin’ On

This year we will again have our cider press up and running! Mike is our on-site expert in blending cider from our many apple varieties. And this year – watch for cider blends using our own apples, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries! Our press room is observable; you might walk by the windows and watch cider being made! Call ahead if you want to be sure to be there when we’re pressing.

NYS law requires producers to treat all cider made for resale. Heat pasteurization is one method. UV treatment also meets this requirement by using ultraviolet light instead of intense heat. This is the method we use. Cider tasting can be a fun pursuit like comparing gourmet coffees. Sample some for yourself! Cider slushies are a big hit with kids, and we have them all summer and fall. Don’t forget that our cider is 100% natural, has no preservatives, no added sugar, and contains fiber from the pectin in the apples. Stop by for a gallon and enjoy!
